Rabbits can't feed more grain feed
Rabbits are herbivores, and their diet should primarily consist of grass-based materials with proper supplementation. However, in recent years, some small-scale rabbit farmers have deviated from this principle, opting for less nutritious or improper feeding methods. This has led to serious consequences, as inadequate feeding can negatively impact the growth and development of rabbits, and in severe cases, even cause diseases. Therefore, it's crucial for rabbit farmers to adopt a scientific and balanced feeding approach.
Using self-made pellets or commercially purchased feed may seem convenient, but it's important to note that rabbit digestion takes approximately 5 to 8 hours. If there's no main ingredient to aid digestion, food can become stuck in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to an imbalance in gut flora. This can result in fermentation and gas production, which may lead to acidosis. As harmful bacteria multiply, they produce endotoxins that can cause toxic enteritis, ultimately leading to dehydration and even shock in rabbits.
Green forage, whether wild or cultivated, is considered high-quality feed. It's rich in nutrients and vitamins, soft, juicy, and highly palatable, with a digestion time of about 3 to 4 hours. It also has a mild laxative effect, helping maintain digestive health. On the other hand, dried or coarse forage, while less nutritious, plays an important role in promoting gut motility. Although it takes longer to digest—around 8 to 12 hours—it helps inhibit the growth of harmful anaerobic bacteria. Combining both green and coarse forage ensures better digestion, supports gut health, and aids in the efficient elimination of waste.
